      Optic Nerve Head Volumetry by Optical Coherence Tomography in Papilledema Related to Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension
      Purpose : Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) leads to optic nerve head swelling and optic atrophy if left untreated. We wanted to assess an easy to perform volumetric algorithm to detect and quantify papilledema in comparison to retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) analysis using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods : Participants with and without IIH underwent visual acuity testing at different contrast levels and static perimetry. Spectralis-OCT measurements comprised standard imaging of the ...

      Comparison of Current Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Methods in Imaging Retinal Hemangioblastomas
      Purpose : To compare spectral-domain (SD) and swept-source (SS) optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) for imaging retinal capillary hemangioblastomas (RCHs) in von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHLD). Methods : Prospective single-center cross-sectional study. Tumor size (TS) of perfused RCHs was assessed clinically in relation to the optic disc size. For both technologies, SD-OCTA and SS-OCTA, corresponding images with a scan size of 3 3 mm 2 and 6 6 mm 2 , respectively, were overlaid ...

      Indications for intraoperative anterior segment optical coherence tomography in corneal surgery
      Purpose Recently, intraoperative optical coherence tomography (iOCT) has evolved in the field of ophthalmic surgery. So far, the use of iOCT was mainly focused to lamellar keratoplasty, especially deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) and Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK). The aim of this study was to report our experiences with iOCT to introduce new possibilities of this application. Methods We used iOCT in 18 patients who underwent the following surgeries ...

      Swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography alleviates shadowing artifacts caused by subretinal fluid
      Purpose To characterize the choriocapillaris (CC) structure in relation to subretinal fluid (SRF) as a possible systematic error source using spectral domain (SD-OCTA) compared to swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA). Methods This is a prospective case-control study of 23 eyes. Ten patients with acute central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC), three patients with partial macular-off retinal detachment (RD) and ten healthy, age-matched controls were included. Abnormal CC decorrelation signals were quantitatively ...

      Morpho-molecular ex vivo detection and grading of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer using forward imaging probe based multimodal optical coherence tomography and Raman spectroscop
      Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer affects millions of people worldwide, resulting in significant discomfort to the patient and potential death. Today, cystoscopy is the gold standard for bladder cancer assessment, using white light endoscopy to detect tumor suspected lesion areas, followed by resection of these areas and subsequent histopathological evaluation. Not only does the pathological examination take days, but due to the invasive nature, the performed biopsy can result in significant harm ...

      Characterisation of vascular changes in different stages of Stargardt disease using double swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography
      Objective To describe vascular changes in different stages of Stargardt disease (STGD) via double swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography. Methods and analysis Prospective, cross-sectional casecontrol study. Twenty-three patients (45 eyes) with ABCA4 mutations graded according to the Fishman STGD classification and 23 controls (23 eyes) were included. Two independent investigators quantified the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) in the superficial and deep capillary plexus (SCP/DCP) and the areas presenting rarefied ...

      Reduction of periodic noise in Fourier domain optical coherence tomography images by frequency domain filtering
      In Fourier domain optical coherence tomography (FDOCT) coherence noise is caused by interference of light waves back-reflected or scattered from different spots within a measuring depth or from optical components within the OCT system such as a bended optical fibre. This coherence noise appears as periodic stripe patterns along the axial direction in resulting images. Background subtraction and physical segmentation are used to degrade the periodic coherence noise in previous ...

      Quasi-Bessel beams from asymmetric and astigmatic illumination sources
      We study the spatial intensity distribution and the self-reconstruction of quasi-Bessel beams produced from refractive axicon lenses with edge emitting laser diodes as asymmetric and astigmatic illumination sources. Comparing these to a symmetric mono-mode fiber source, we find that the asymmetry results in a transition of a quasi-Bessel beam into a bow-tie shaped pattern and eventually to a line shaped profile at a larger distance along the optical axis. Furthermore ...

      The APOSTEL recommendations for reporting quantitative optical coherence tomography studies
      Objective: To develop consensus recommendations for reporting of quantitative optical coherence tomography (OCT) study results. Methods: A panel of experienced OCT researchers (including 11 neurologists, 2 ophthalmologists, and 2 neuroscientists) discussed requirements for performing and reporting quantitative analyses of retinal morphology and developed a list of initial recommendations based on experience and previous studies. The list of recommendations was subsequently revised during several meetings of the coordinating group. Results: We ...

      Bimodal endoscopic probe combining white-light microscopy and optical coherence tomography
      We present a novel bimodal endoscopic imaging probe that can simultaneously provide full-field white-light video microscopy and confocal optical coherence tomography (OCT) depth scans. The two modalities rely on spectrally separated optical paths that run partially in parallel through a micro-optical bench system, which has a cross-section of only 2 mm 2.76 mm and is realized via standard silicon micromachining techniques. With a numerical aperture of 0.061, the ...

      Coronal in vivo forward-imaging of rat brain morphology with an ultra-small optical coherence tomography fiber probe
      A well-established navigation method is one of the key conditions for successful brain surgery: it should be accurate, safe and online operable. Recent research shows that optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a potential solution for this application by providing a high resolution and small probe dimension. In this study a fiber-based spectral-domain OCT system utilizing a super-luminescent-diode with the center wavelength of 840 nm providing 14.5 m axial resolution ...
